Cleason-Dunn-Wright Music Trio Sign up 2 people and get $75 off your total (new signups only--good thru July 20th)

Your evening entertainment will be Cleason-Dunn-Wright, a professional performing music trio with a commitment to vocal perfection. Woven into each song are the sounds of two or sometimes three guitars, and an upright bass. Their music is based on popular folk rock favorites from four decades and between the three musicians there are several thousand songs, and over 35 years of performing from private parties to national television. The set list reflects their commitment to vocal perfection and includes songs from the Beatles, The Marshall Tucker Band, Zac Brown, Alan Jackson, The Guess Who, the Grateful Dead, and the Allman Brothers. It is pure fun to find gems from the past and bring them to vocal life with great harmonies, excellent guitar playing and tons of popular sing-along-songs. Enjoy a private concert around the campfire. What could be better?! Here’s a demo of their singing: http://www.reverbnation.com/cleasondunnwright/songs

This spectacular canyon country of the Colorado Plateau, including Ruby and Horsethief Canyons, features majestic walls of red sandstone and offers some of the best canoeing in Colorado. The river is gentle with occasional small Class I+ rapids to add spice to the journey (Class I is easy and Class V is difficult). Roads do not bound this portion of the river and the steep-walled canyons are accessible only from the river, giving the area a true wilderness setting.

You’ll be amazed at stands of shiny granite sculpted by water through the ages while paddling or floating in your life jacket past the remnants of ancient metamorphic rock, called Black Rock. Camping along the river’s banks and exploring a deep box canyon will leave you awed by the immensity of geologic time and the silence of the wilderness. This is BIG COUNTRY and a geologist’s paradise. Many of our educational classes focus on this area. This stretch of river near Grand Junction, CO, is ideal for canoeing. The Colorado River canoe trip is 26 miles.
